Problem Statement
How might we assist parents to understand and appropriately deal with mental health issues with their children?
Customer / Problem
Our target customers are families, especially parents with kids who are struggling with mental health issues. Most parents expect their children to be perfect and struggle to accept and deal with signs of mental health struggles in their children. This is because there aren't many services that support parents to understand their unique child and work with them as they grow up.
Solution
Parenting the future is a program dedicated to resourcing parents about the mental health of their kids. The program is run in different workshop-style events that bring parents and kids struggling with mental health together. It heavily involves wellbeing experts professionally trained to facilitate any difficult issues that may arrive. Having the entire family present helps children to feel seen and heard.
